Getting a Sony a5100 soon and I'm confused about all the different SD cards available. What will work with this camera?

Thanks

That's fine you will need any of these...

 

Memory Stick PRO Duo, Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo, Memory Stick XC-HG Duo, SD Memory Card, SDHC Memory Card, SDHC UHS-I Memory Card, SDXC Memory Card or a SDXC UHS-I Memory Card

 

I'd go with the SDXC personally :D

Might add this later...

Preferably, Class 10, UHS-1, or UHS-3

I speak the honest truth with a bit of snark mixed in. I'm sorry if it doesn't line up with your beliefs.

Sony refuses to let their crappy format die...

At least they let that camera use SDXC which is actually useful.
